The rate of intimate partner violence against females declined 53% between 1993 and 2008, from 9.4 victimizations per 1,000 females age 12 or older to 4.3 per 1,000. Against males, the rate declined 54%, from 1.8 victimizations per 1,000 males age 12 or older to 0.8 per 1,000.
no one is saying everyone does it, but nearly everyone refuse to talk about it rationally and uses the excuses 'not everyone does it' to avoid doing actual thinking.
"Geeks are frustrated because they don't have good luck with women." false. please stop spreading that crap.
"Rejection and loneliness results in the misogyny " no. bad social skills and a lack of empathy do.
" creepiness " bad hygiene is most of that.
"geeks decide that women are turned off by intelligence," nope.
You need to hang around with people who like the things you like. OR sue a special dating service. Also reading up on person skills and learning to think of others.
The issue here is every time someone try's to address the issue, and punch of self centered ass hats scream "Not Me!" instead of discussing the issue. If its a women., then it immediately escalates to her getting death threats.
Think about that. Woman says she is getting harassed, then she gets death threats. It is not rare, it happen everytime. and it isn't just a tine percentage, it shockingly large.
We are better then that. I have a daughter who is a nerd. I have to prepare her for the onslaught of crap she will get that men do not get. What do you tell a 13 year old girl to do when going to someone about being harassed means she has to be in fear for her life?
You missed the point. No one is saying it is or is not any place else, what they are saying is in the 'nerd community' any time someone tries to address it people like you come out and say it's not worth discussing because it happens elsewhere to.
Which is pretty pathetic.
Oh, you anecdote contrary to what everyone else agree sis going on isn't the same. well then I guess that shows us. and What it shows us is that you are a self centered person that can barely survive above rote thinking.

"“If our stomach were simple enough for us to understand them, we'd be so simple that we couldn't.”" That would have the exact same meaning 100 years ago, before anyone understood how the stomach worked and everyone pretty much considered it a 'magic box' much like most people thing of their brains.
You design chips for a living. A design appear on your desktop that's next generation. You can delete it, or look like super hero genius at work and submit it.
You are a CEO, and in front of you, with very little man power sits the design, created by one of your people, for the next chip design. Due you trash it or make billions?
You're a tech. You get a work order to install something. The box arrives, and you install it, or risk getting fired?
nothing. The singularity requires resources. Resource humans need to provide. So while you may have a system that designed smarter systems, assuming it's possible to do that, it' snot like they will magically appear everywhere.
Singularity is a largely overblown issue that fits right into the same meme that infect humans about religion.
"Software means more things can go wrong." software means different things can go wrong. Which is why you have multiple systems with redundancy. Something humans do not have.
"My driving skills (or lack thereof) are a known quantity to me." unless you have a way to extract you ego out of the question, no, it is not. You believe you know them based on self delusion and awareness of self. This applies to every person, not just you. Any given moment, there are areas you think you are perceiving, but they are just best guess assembly of what's there from your brain.
" Simply that I want the option to take control in an accident situation where the car may be malfunctioning." as long as you are willing to be sued when you make the wrong decision, or you decision impacts someone else, so be it.
The current autonomous systems are more reliable then you are.
"As opposed to letting it drive me off a cliff or into a lake or something..." If you manual swerve into oncoming traffic to avoid and accident, the the declension become hit me in head on crash or go over a cliff, I sure as hell hope you go over a cliff. Because if you hit me, I will sue the fuck out of you... or my surviving relatives will. See, an autonomous car can evaluate all those out comes in milliseconds. You wouldn't even be aware of anything outside you immediate focus. Welcome to being a human.

Since the data indicate you are wrong I fully expect you to apologize and use the data to change you narrative.
BWAhahahha I kid you clearly can't do that.
Bad example. Art is about showing off the body.
IN the books conan was almost always armored, funny how in most pictures he isn't.
The body is a fantastic art form.
However, to answer your questions:
Wolfenstein, half life, Portal II, the new Lara Croft, I could go on..and on

We. Can. Do. Better.

Fine. How will it be powered? Every increasing speed require every increasing power, and the power need increases faster then the increase of power.
"If human intelligence is indeed a non-computable problem, "
it is not. It's a fixed real thing that exists.
physics? really? nothing in physics says it's inevitable.
just the energy requirements alone may limit it.
"No man will run a mile in under a second"
There, I said something that can't be done, by you logic it must be possible because...physics.
That statement is Equal parts hubris and equal parts ignorance.

Not one less job. one less position. So realistically 3 FTE jobs.
If slavery is the only way you can get women, maybe you should spend less time watching ST and more time working on your person skills?
hey look. power lines.
Hey look, a back hoe
Hey look, sparks.

Can the general populace AFFORD to have a device that's a calendar and a phone and a music player and a camera and a game machine?
but it will be unnecessary since we will be able to grow body parts.
Only as good as the programmer that programmed it.
You don't know how these systems work or are built, so you?
Whetever, you clearly stopped thinking about this past FUD.

nope.
Even better, you go to work in your car, and then while working the car becomes a taxi and makes money for you.
